1. Is there a new Gen 2 flash for the Super Tenere?
YES, we have updated our reflash for the XT1200. It is more of an
evolution of the first flash then a radical change, we have worked
hard to smooth out the throttle even more and have been able to
eliminate the symptoms of the closed loop routine in the ECU. This
will eliminate the surging and stuttering a lot of XT1200 owners have
complained about and can completely transform the way the bike rides.
There are other changes to the flash that I will detail below as well,
we realize that a lot of you are curious to the exact technical
changes.
2. Is every ECUnleashed map for the same 'canned map'?
Our Tune Files are individually built for each customer vehicle.
We will however use one of our many tested mapping parameters
in our database if the vehicle configuration calls for it. Although these
are most often related to the factory restrictions and limiters we will
reuse our previously tested and optimized mapping tables any time
the situation allows us to. Every tune file order is reviewed and
any vehicle requiring specific mapping adjustments are address
accordingly. Of course these changes depend on the level & complexity
of the vehicle modifications and overall configuration. We are able and willing
to provide custom mapping for the more advanced applications such as
internal engine modifications and complex race fuels, however these
applications will require submitting full data acquisition/logging information
into us so we can make the proper adjustments.
3. Did the Gen 1 flash fix the closed loop routine?
While the previous Super Tenere flash reduced the symptoms
caused by the closed loop at lower rpm, we recently located
additional areas of the software that were aiding in the negative
effects caused by the closed loop. We have addressed
these issues in the updated flash and the improvements
are significantly noticeable on both the dyno and while riding.
4. Does the update require sending my ECU directly in to ECUnleashed?
Because we are performing the update at *no additional cost, we cannot
ask our partners to perform these updates. We ask that you please send
your ECU directly to **us for the update and please include your contact
information, return address, and all information pertaining to the original
order you placed through your Authroized Tuning Center. This will allow us to
reference your vehicle records and ensure a proper reflash.
*Customer will only be responsible for Shipping & Handling costs
as well as any tariff/duties on international shipments
**For additional details on shipping your ecu, contact us through our
online Contact Form - http://ecunleashed.com/contact-us/
5. Do we develop our flashes on a dyno?
Absolutely. Each vehicle tune file is developed and tested in house using
some of best equipment available from our friends at Rotronics - FR
http://www.rotronics.com/
In addition to this we also work with all of our Authorized Tuning Centers
worldwide to develop Performance files based on wide variety of modifications,
accessories, and atmospheric/regional conditions.
6.What exactly does the reflash update change?
Significant improvements to the throttle response in "S" mode maps
Greater fuel efficiency in "S" mode maps
"T" mode mapping remains stock but we made slight adjustments to the AFR (Air/Fuel Ratio) in 5th and 6th gear producing a value of 13:1 as opposed to 12.7:1(factory)
Better advance maps over both cylinders 1 and 2
Fully compensated for the closed loop routine below 5k rpm
7.What exactly does the ECUnleashed reflash do to my XT1200 ECU?
-Removal of the top speed limiter
-Removal of the factory timing retardation
-Removal of the factory throttle restrictions
-Increased rev limit by 500rpm- no cost option
-Increase idle up to 1250- no cost option
-Less engine braking and improved decel maps
-Improved throttle control
-Eliminate the factory injector cut off
-Eliminate dash error codes
and all of the benefits from the gen 2 flash as well.
We hope this clear up a lot of your questions and concerns. Please
feel free to post any additional questions in this thread and we will
get back to you as quickly as we can.

We hope this clear up a lot of your questions and concerns. Please feel free to ask anything else here and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. Also the auto response that one of the members received that was something along the lines of "3-5 business days for a response" is from an old out of office reply that our e-mail server throws in randomly on occasion.

EDIT: If you could please include a pre-payed return shipping label this will help expedite the reflashing process.
